"Another winner from Jim Murphy. He writes a suspenseful retelling of the great Chicago fire of 1871. Combine it with the juvenile novel Children of the Fire by Harriet Gillem Robinette."
"Although my children & I learned about the Chicago fire from this book, we all found it to be, for the most part, very dry & boring. How many different ways can you say that a fire spread?"
